Abstract:
The distribution of freshwater mussels Pyganodon Crosse and P. Fischer, 1894 traditionally inferred from morphological characters was validated by a genetic characterization of the genus within the Quebec peninsula. Individuals were identified by comparing the sequences from the female mitochondrial genome (COI and 16S) with those of reference individuals, while hybridization was assessed with male mitochondrial (COI and COII) and nuclear genomes (ITS1 and ITS2). The results confirmed most of the previous morphological identifications but revealed unexpected results. Both male and female mitoc

Abstract:
Two nominal species of freshwater mussels, Pyganodon cataracta (Say, 1817) (eastern floater) and Pyganodon fragilis (Lamarck, 1819) (Newfoundland floater), occur in Atlantic Canada, but their taxonomic status has been controversial. We analyzed the female-transmitted mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (i.e., FCOI) and nuclear internal transcribed spacer region (ITS-1) gene sequences, as well as multilocus amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers, to evaluate genetic variation in Pyganodon specimens from Atlantic Canada. We found that Pyganodon samples from this region di

Abstract:
Dispersal of freshwater mussels occurs when the larvae parasitize fishes. In northeastern North America, distributions of floater mussels ( Pyganodon spp.) are allopatric and arranged in an east–west pattern that corresponds poorly with the biogeographic patterns of the regional fish fauna. This study aims at determining whether associations with distinct fish species can explain the distribution of floaters. Here, we devised a framework based on a series of novel distributional null models to elucidate dispersal of species that are dependent on host species. The distributional patterns of flo

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Pyganodon grandis and P. lacustris, widespread and common species in North America, are known to co-occur across parts of their distributions. These mussels are genetically distinguishable with a sequence divergence between 9% and 13% for the mitochondrial (mt) DNA barcoding region, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), which is well beyond thresholds for distinct species. The objectives of this study were to (1) confirm the presence of two genetically distinct species (P. grandis and P. lacustris) in Font Lake and Lake Geneserath on Beaver Island in northern Lake Michigan, (2) identi

Abstract:
For this study, the unionid bivalve Pyganodon grandis was either exposed to dissolved cadmium (Cd) or fed Cd-contaminated algae ( Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata ) during short-term laboratory experiments. Cadmium accumulated largely in the digestive gland after a dietary exposure, or in the gills after an aqueous exposure; in these latter experiments, Cd accumulation from the dissolved phase increased as bivalve filtration rates increased. The results of these uptake experiments were used to parameterize a biodynamic model, which was then used to estimate the relative importance of water and

Abstract:
During reproduction, the outer demibranchs of the unionid mussel Pyganodon cataracta serve as marsupia, with incubation of the developing shelled glochidia larvae occurring within the water tubes. In this study, recently developed endoscopic video analysis techniques were employed to examine in vivo the dynamics of filter feeding and water transport in mussels during gravid and postgravid periods. Particles entering the mantle cavity and retained by the gills were transported to the palps in a complex mucus-bound cord by the ventral food groove of the medial ctenidia. Larval incubation and cte

Abstract:
In 2014 and 2015, 27 sites in Rondeau Bay, Ontario, Canada, were surveyed for freshwater mussels. Rondeau Bay is a large coastal wetland on the north shore of Lake Erie. Twenty-three species were identified from 120 live mussels, 15 fresh whole shells, 329 weathered whole shells, and 1121 weathered valves. Live individuals of the following species were collected: Eastern Pondmussel (Ligumia nasuta; endangered in Canada), Giant Floater (Pyganodon grandis), Round Pigtoe (Pleurobema sintoxia;endangered in Canada), and Three-ridge (Amblema plicata).
